Comments
DEEP at Renshaw! We found about 80 cm of low density snow at treeline, but there may have been more wind effect higher up. No new avalanches, but we didn't get good views into the alpine. Our snow pit didn't get any significant results, but with the sheer amount of new snow we weren't eager to step out into bigger terrain. Luckily there were good pockets of untracked snow in mellow areas and on smaller low consequence slopes.
